- i was supposed to watch endo (a cinemalaya entry) WITH joyce, but i was late and freaked out a little because i bumped with someone i knew (ehem, wala kaming nakaraan. i wasn't me.hahaha) and hurried inside the cine adarna. hoping joyce will pick me up, i waited at the very back of the theater and didn't sit.. but i ended up watching it alone with gogo in my right hand and iced tea in the left...talk about patience. hahaha!!
- endo has a usual plot: boy meets girl. they were both contractual employees of our well loved tambayan, SM. they fall in love. girl being so "ambitious" applied to a luxury ship liner. guy tried but failed. and they end up not talking anymore. then girl thought she's pregnant. then i think i should stop here. hahaha!!spoilers for you my dearest..*wink*
- endo, for the romantics, is just a love story. actually, had it been mass- produced i am sure the audience are alreardy preparing themselves a handky and one heck of a "happy ending" musical number. thank god it was a cinemalaya entry made my a passionate artist. feminist like my self will find the protagonist girl (FYI: she bagged the well- deserved best actress "balanghay") rather endearing and realistic. i love the fact that all the elements of a stereotype love story are present. from the "other" girl/s to the marry-me-and-don't-leave-me-because-i-love-you-and-oh-by-the-way-abandon-the-plans-you've-conceived-before-i-came-to-your-life-and-yes-i-am-actually-kneeling-now-begging speech from a howling guy. and yes, audience sick of these usual mushyness will be heard yelling "tang ina mu pagsinunud mo sya papatayin kita!!" (babala:hindi sa akin nagmula yan...hindi..gago ka kung maniniwala ka sakin.hahahaha).. yet the resolution was a diversion from the expected.and of course, temperamental audience are relieved...that'll be me i guess.hahaha!! i also love the type of mushyness the screen writer and the director infused in the movie. basta, it was a good movie worth more than P70...
- gusto ko talaga mapanood ang tribu, the one awarded best picture. pati ang pisay ni aureus solito, the guy who gave us ang pagdadalaga ni maximo oliveros.
- next year, i'm so gonna watch all the entries in cinemalaya. and i must be in the opening ceremony. i need to be with my people..*wink*
- so unfortunate i wasn't able to see you-know-who there.. but i saw karylle..ang ordinaryo lang nya..sana sa tv o pelikula na lang sya lagi kasi paglabas nya sa konteksyon yon, hindi na sya mukhang josa..truli..
pebi talking in gibberish again around 5:51 PM
